Ellie's Newsflash
Week 1-4/14-4/20- You are such a tiny girl! 5 pounds 15 ounces. When we brought you home from the hospital, I sat in the back of the pathfinder holding your head. Everything was too large for you. The car seat, newborn diapers, newborn clothing. I sent Kumi out to buy you preemie sized clothing. Those fit, barely. I am obsessed with your breathing. I check every few minutes to make sure you still breath. When you stop for a few moments, I shake you gently. It is my worst fear, that possibility. When you cried, it sounded as though you were saying 'enough, enough'. We all tried changing your diaper as quickly as possible and offering you a boob as quickly as possible just to make those first cries of yours subside. You are our joy. Our beautiful angel princess.
You are an effervescent eater. You were able to latch on to me with no problem at all. The doctors and nurses let you and I be together for almost two hours before they took you to be weighed. The few times they needed you in the nursery, Papa or I went with you. You were never out of our sight. From the very first night you came into this world, we shared a bed. Frick and Frack, that is who we are...a package deal, not to be separated.
